Spherical Magic The Spectrum of Creativity
Spherical Magic is the fusion of the vision, talent and ability of two accomplished artist/engineers into one force of creativity. The combining of resources and assets has proven fruitful in the completion of many large joint projects. A major mural and a major glass sculpture were among the first to be realized. With many more to come, the formation of a unified location to foster these efforts was nigh.
A new studio was purchased on a ten acre 2,000' ridge top in Carmel Valley, California that allows for the housing of the many disciplines and the equipment required to suport their effort, with ample room for expansion. It houses:
- A glass blowing studio for hot glass, warm glass and cold working with water-cooled glass saws, belt sanders and grinder/polishers.
- Computer network of 10 Intel, Macintosh and UNIX machines for image processing, animation, film editing and design.
- Traditional 6' drafting tables w/drafting machines.
- Custom hydraulic scroll table for murals and large canvas.
- 44" Giclée printer for on-demand museum quality printing.
- Framing table for custom mats and frames.
- Wood shop.
- Two artist/engineers and five cats.
We're nearly out of space already, so a rustic California Style barn is planned for the east side of the property.
